Miss Taylor's views

I brought my year 8 English class to the CLC in South Camden as part of the BBC school news report. Matthew Green accompanied the students and myself on the bus and Hollie was fanatstic at giving us directions as neither me nor Mr Green could read the map!

When we arrived at the CLC, Nic Miles gave us clear instrucions about how the day would run and what each of the reporters were expected to do. The Students spent the morning researching a variety of news stories, from political to international; sports, to local. After researching their stories they wrote their own versions. These would become scripts to be used later in the day.

We went to the park for lunch, the break was well deserved- I'm not sure how Ms Byrne manages on PHSE days, I was exhausted!

We returned to the CLC to compile the day's stories. Students recorded the stories they had written and filmed them in front of a green screen, their scripts were placed into a computer which the students read from like an auto cue.

After this students returned to the computer suites to write or up load their blogs. Mr Wadmore then came to collect us and escort us back to Haverstock. The students are able to go home and share with their parents and carers their blogs on the world wide web.

I'll just be happy with a cup of tea!

Mp bugged at Milton Keynes prison

A ex police intelligence officer mark Kearney claims that he bugged a mp’s interview to a prisoner.

Mr Kearney a former police intelligence officer at Woodhill prison Milton Keynes said that he did not want to bug the mp sadiq khan but that he was put under “significant presher by the met police to do so”.

It is also said that it was Mr Kearney was the one who leaked this information to the papers but Mr Kearney has not admitted to these charges

But the home office was not informed of this event until December and that the bbc found out that the home sectary’s Jacqui Smith and the justices sectary jack straw had not been aware until the Sunday times released the report this weekend

Mr Kearney also quoted that “ I'm shocked and disgusted by this leakage to the media - I believe it puts my life and safety at risk

The debate now will focus on whether political surveillance is returning, or whether MPs - like us all - should be liable to be bugged if there is a perceived threat to national security.

And that the political editor nick Robinson also stated

The debate now will focus on whether political surveillance is returning, or whether MPs - like us all - should be liable to be bugged if there is a perceived threat to national security.

Azmaeen : ‘Work or lose home' says minister

Paige: The new council minister Caroline flint has suggested that people living in council flats that do not work should not have the right to live there. Unless they get jobs they could get chucked out of their homes.

Azmaeen: Caroline flint suggested that new people that are applying for the social housing should be given commitment contracts.

Paige: This scheme will not be applied at the people who suffer from illnesses or are disabled and unable to work.

Grant Shapps shadow housing minister said that the idea is pointless as it could not be enforced legally.

Half of the council houses that are paid with benefits, the people living in them are without work. Reports published last February showed that many of those without jobs are under the age of 25.

Glasgow gangs are reaching levels of London

Glasgow’s level of crime and gangs was very little compared to London, but in these recent years the levels have reached the same, by usage of drugs and alcohol. It is proved that there are now a number of 170 gangs in Glasgow, which is adding up to the same amount as in London. This is unexpected as the cities population is a sixth less than London.

The amount of gangs is all so affecting the cities education, and now they have the second worse exam results in Scotland. And causing social problems around Glasgow with other cities in the UK.

The leader of the Glasgow city council Steven Purcell said: “It's well-documented that Glasgow still has a major challenge in terms of our long-standing and deep-rooted social problems.”
The Glasgow council are now focussing on trying to improve health problems around the city and unemployment for children leaving school, and adults.

The education of Glasgow has improved. Ten years ago 40% of students left school and went on to being unemployed, and now in 2008 the levels have gone up to 10% in the east ends.

Glasgow is slowly and steadily improving its standards of learning, but gangs are still bad, and affecting the city. Hopefully in years to come Glasgow’s standards will reach the way they were before.

Womans murder case from 1983 Yasmin Hassan

I have done a report on a murder in Nottingham which is national news. National news is around the UK. I found this report while looking through the BBC website on UK news.
This is my finished artical on the murder.

Womans Murder case from 1983

On the 30th October 1983 Colette Aram a trainee to be a hairdresser was murdered, in Keyworth in Nottingham. But no one knows who is guilty only that she was raped and strangeled.

Many people over 25 years have been questioned over this murder, but they still do not know who the culprit is. This is because the case has never been closed and the police is determined to find out who the murder is. The police did what every thing they can do but no one has been accused for the murder.

Top three films Hollie and Zulika

Zulika: The film Enchanted is fairy tale about a fare madden Gazelle and how she fell in love with a prince and they were destined to be marred the very next day. Her step-mother pushed her into a well and sent her to New-York. With that she fell in love with an American man.








Hollie: You know cops under cover, you know super heroes but I bet you’ve never heard of underdog. Well now you have. Underdog hasn’t always been underdog. He was accidentally injected with super-powers. I know weird right, I thought so too.
Underdog is known as the lazy type (most dogs are unless
there grehounds, they race).
Zulika: Poor Penelope. Due to her family she has been cursed with the nose of a pig known as a snout. The only way the curse can be cured is true loves first kiss from a man who is blue blooded.
Watch the film and see if her curse is cured and she can no longer have a ‘snout’.

'Work or lose home' says the minister Ghelbi Bunkhaila

hi, i have written a news report on the minister, caroline flint and the idea of "something for something"







The new council minister Caroline flint has suggested that people living in council flats that do not work should not have the right to live there. Unless they get jobs they could get chucked out of their homes.

Caroline flint suggested that new people that are applying for the social housing should be given commitment contracts.

This scheme will not be applied at the people who suffer from illnesses or are disabled and unable to work.

Grant Shapps shadow housing minister said that the idea is pointless as it could not be enforced legally.

Half of the council houses that are paid with benefits, the people living in them are without work. Reports published last February showed that many of those without jobs are under the age of 25.

On Tuesday Caroline flint will discuss the issue in a speech. It is thought that she hopes to start a debate on a “something for something” culture.

Caroline told the guardian "It would be a big change of culture from the time when the council handed someone the keys and forgot about them for 30 years.

"The question we should ask of new tenants is what commitment they will make to improve their skills, find work and take the support that is available."

“Living in an area where there is a concentration of unemployment can be a deterrent to finding work”, she said.

The new commitment contracts would at first only apply to the new housing tenants but could later be changed to apply to already existing tenants. More places to work can be made to try to stop joblessness if there is no where else to work.

Gran Shapps is trying to grab the headlines so that the idea cannot be legally enforced.
